Each lecture will also contain a lecture overview, as well as supplementary reading and viewing materials. The Capra Course lecture videos will be available for five weeks after the last lecture is released. If desired, course participants can receive a course certificate of completion at the end of the course. You are welcome to view the Capra Course Terms of Use here.

The twelve lectures of the course were filmed at Amana-Key in São Paulo, Brazil, with a small group of students. You can listen to what they had to say about their experience of the course in the trailer.

By shifting perspectives through a transcontextual conversational structure, the Warm Data Lab process increases people’s abilities to respond to difficult or “wicked” issues. Because so many of the challenges that we face now are complex, we need approaches to meeting that complexity. Transcontextual… Show more

The Warm Data Lab process is an exercise for use with groups, who are interested in strengthening and further practicing their collective ability to perceive, discuss, and research complex issues. By shifting perspectives through a transcontextual conversational structure, the Warm Data Lab process increases people’s abilities to respond to difficult or “wicked” issues. Because so many of the challenges that we face now are complex, we need approaches to meeting that complexity. Transcontextual interaction is the recognition that complex systems do not exist in single contexts, but rather are formed between multiple contexts that overlap in living communication and among living systems.

The Warm Data lab is a living kaleidoscope of conversation in which information & formulation of cross-contextual knowing is generated — this transcontextual information is the Warm Data. The conversational process is designed to seamlessly engage multiple theoretical principals in a practical format. Show less
